The scent of her skin is naturally sweet
and her beauty takes my breath away
I get so nervous every time we meet
that I hardly have much to say
Yet these feelings of mine are so hard to keep
that I wish the cat would let go of my tongue
I try to convince myself that it’s not that deep
but the truth is I’m already sprung
There’s no doubt she’s the one that I adore
and her sexy vibe is difficult to resist
indeed love is just another metaphor
because a more powerful meaning doesn’t exist
Guess I’m going to have to finally confront my fear
and walk right up and look her square in the face
be truthful and undoubtedly clear
and hope that the words fall into place
See, I never met anyone like her before
and I’m a little anxious, but somehow I’m coping
so afraid that she might close the door
and leave my nose wide open
